Answer: Question #1 The height of the tree is about 18 feet.
To solve this problem, you have to write a proportion using the similar triangles that are drawn. The height of the tree matches the height of the person and the shadows match.
Therefore, we can write and solve the following equation:
x/15 = 5.5/4.5
82.5 = 4.5x
x = 18.33
Answer:
The distance formula is a formalization of the Pythagorean Theorem using (x,y) . They are the same thing (but the distance formula is for working out the distance between two points and Pythagoras theorem is for working out the missing length in a right-angled triangle) in two different contexts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Because zero is the x, so x=-7 then it's -7
